Chapter 265

Xing Shan walked out of the rest house, and the wolf girl was waiting for him outside. As soon as he whistled, the wolf girl quickly came to his side, and followed him obediently, not daring to go far.

Seeing this situation, Hu Buxi couldn't help laughing, "Okay, bro, you are the only one in the world who can train wolf girls like this."

"Of course."

Xing Shan had a proud face, and he didn't know if it was because the wolf girl became his wife, so whenever something related to the wolf girl came up, he would become extremely proud.

"Do you think the wolf girl is a fool? She knows very well in her heart who treats her best in this world."

Seeing his proud look, Hu Buxi couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckle, and said bluntly: "Well, you won't know until you complete the task. After all, from the beginning, you wanted to kidnap others and use them as agents."

Hearing this, Xing Shan glanced at the wolf girl guiltily and scolded quickly: "Don't say such words next time. The wolf girl can understand more and more words. If she hears such words, what the hell?" If it’s not good, you’ll be sad.”

Seeing his nervous appearance, Hu Buxi became even more amused, "What's so sad? It's the truth! What's more, do you think you can hide it from her for the rest of your life? At the beginning, she was so virtuous that someone could take a fancy to her." It’s good to be a fast catcher, and she should also know what’s going on with her in her heart.”

"It's one thing to be clear, it's another thing to be told to someone's face."

Xing Shan said bluntly: "Everyone will have their own unbearable past events. The matter of Mengyin Mountain has passed for so long, why do you have to uncover her scars again and again?"

Hearing what he said, Hu Buxi understood his painstaking efforts, and his eyes suddenly softened, "Okay, brother, I get it, you are so good that no one can be picky."

"hey-hey."

Xing Shan laughed twice, but his eyes were a little dim.

It's not because he is so considerate, but because he has scars that he doesn't want to reveal, so he shows his concern.

The past that the wolf girl couldn't bear to look back on was the time in Mengyin Mountain, but the past that he couldn't look back on was the time in Gugu Mountain.

If time could be written backwards, he really wished that he had never traveled through time, and that Zhai Yi and others had never met him.

It's not Zhai Yi and the others who deserve to be damned, but him, a useless guy.

The three walked out of Shuntian Mansion together, Hu Buxi parted ways with them soon, Xing Shan took the wolf girl to the mansion of the ancestor's family, first went to pay a visit to the grandfather.

Since the case of Gui Yuetian, Grandpa Zu has never returned to his rural farmhouse, probably because he has deeply realized that as long as Zu Yiming does not improve for a day, he will not be able to retire in peace, so Only then did he resign himself to his fate and stay in his ancestral home, accompanying his only grandson.

This time when the ancestor's family went to Shuntian Mansion to report the crime, Xing Shan didn't know if he had instructed him, but what was certain was that he knew exactly what happened in his heart.

If he didn't even know why other people stepped on his head, then his past few decades would be considered useless.

Just as Xing Shan guessed, when he and the wolf girl came to the door, Zu Long already knew their intentions. His heart was much more transparent than Zu Yiming's about what happened in the Zu's house these days. He was obviously not willing to cooperate with Shuntian Mansion's inquiry.

"Since Yiming has entrusted this matter to your Shuntian Mansion to investigate, then this matter is naturally the responsibility of your Shuntian Mansion. If you came to me to ask for clues, could it be that your Shuntian Mansion is not doing enough?"

Hearing his unkind words, Xing Shan smiled lightly, and said calmly: "We are just asking as usual, you don't have to be so contradictory, Mr. Zu."

"Humph!"

Zu Long snorted coldly, and said indifferently: "If I remember correctly, Xingbutou, you are so smart, you have solved so many cases, and you even know what this old man has done, so why do you need help from others?"

Seeing that his every sentence was against him, Xing Shan shook his head amusedly, "It seems that the impact of this incident on your ancestor's family is not too great, otherwise Grandpa Zu would not be in the mood to make things difficult for the villain."

Zu Long sneered, and said bluntly: "You guessed it right, this matter has little impact on our ancestors, but it can trouble you Shuntian Mansion, not only my heart is at ease, my grandson's is at ease, our entire ancestors' hearts are in peace." comfortable!"

Seeing his righteous appearance, Xing Shan couldn't help but sigh, "Master Zu, I thought that after that incident, even if we couldn't be friends, we could still respect each other. I didn't expect you to be so persistent."

Zu Long's eyes darkened, and he said indifferently: "If Xing Butou has nothing else to do, please forgive me for not being able to accompany you."

With that said, he flicked his sleeves and went straight back to his room.

Seeing his bad attitude towards Xing Shan, the wolf girl almost subconsciously growled at his back. Xing Shan was afraid that she would cause something, so he quickly reached out to stop her, "Xiao Mi, calm down, that's us. friends, not enemies."

Hearing this, the wolf girl calmed down, but her bright eyes were full of innocence.

Seeing her like this, Xing Shan couldn't help laughing, "Don't worry, I don't mean to blame you, I know you want to protect me, but this is not Mengyin Mountain, you can't growl at everyone who hates you them."

Although the wolf girl didn't understand what Xing Shan was talking about, but seeing the smile on his face, she knew that his mood was not affected, and she instantly became happy again.

In fact, she is very simple, as long as Xing Shan is happy, she will be happy.

Xing Shan saw the wolf girl's bright smile, and his heavy heart instantly relaxed a lot.

The reason why he felt pressure was not because of how complicated the case was, but because the attitude of Zu Long and Zu Yiming made him realize that in this small capital, even if he wanted to avoid his ancestor's house, it was a matter of life. Very difficult thing.

He thought he could live in peace with his ancestors, but it turned out not to be.

Whether it was Zu Yiming or Zu Long, they didn't really let go of Gui Yuetian.

One wants to find out the murderer, the other wants to conceal the murderer, the two attack back and forth, which makes him feel exhausted.

Perhaps, this is the price he paid for letting the real culprit go as a catcher. They all say that there is no retribution in this world, but he feels that whenever he does something wrong, the retribution will chase after him with wind and lightning. It's so tiring to feel like I can't hit him!
After coming out of the ancestor's house, Xing Shan took the wolf girl to find a hidden corner and sat down, secretly observing the ancestor's mansion to see if anyone would come to make trouble.

It was also at this time that the system's task sounded in his mind at the right time: [Find out the truth behind the case of the ancestral home being disrupted.Task reward: 1000 taels of silver.Task penalty: be referenced. 】

Hearing the punishment of this task, Xing Shan was stunned for a while, it was just a small case, does it need to be put on the table?
Could it be that there was something involved in this case that he didn't think of that made the case so serious?
Thinking of this, Xing Shan took over the task in his mind while staring at the gate of the ancestral home.

He is the son of Xing Wentian, if he is sued to the court, he will lose face to the Xing family, this kind of thing must never happen!
The wolf girl saw him tense up instantly, and her whole body tensed up with him. Although she couldn't understand human language, she would react to the same emotions according to the emotions of the people around her. It can be said that she is more Most people are more empathetic and more sensitive.

The two stayed by the ancestral mansion for a whole day. During this period, Zu Yiming went in and out several times, but apparently they were not found.

No one in the ancestral family is now in the official career, relying on their laurels and a few shops in the family.

It has to be said that Zu Long, as the head of the family, really worried about his useless children and grandchildren. Not only did he invest in shops in the capital early, even the shopkeepers of each shop were personally selected by him. The children and grandchildren only need to sit back and enjoy the benefits, but Zu Yiming still ruined the reputation of the ancestors step by step.

From his perspective, life in his later years is really so miserable.

It would be fine if Zu Yiming could fully grow up after going through this battle.

But looking at his posture, let alone Zulong, even Xing Shan always felt that he would cause trouble in the future.

The two kept watch until late at night, during which time they only ate a little dry food and water that Xing Shan brought. It was the first time for the wolf girl to accompany Xing Shan on a mission. Impatient and did not throw a tantrum.

Seeing her so well-behaved, Xing Shan was very distressed. He remembered that there was a noodle stall near the ancestor's house, which would be open until late when there was no curfew. After calculating the time, it should not be closed by now, so he gave the wolf girl ten taels of silver. , Let her go to that noodle stall to eat something, and come back to accompany him after eating.

The wolf girl took the silver and followed his instructions, while he continued to guard in the dark, observing whether there was any movement at the gate of the ancestral home.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, he suddenly heard a roar in the silent night sky, it was the voice of the wolf girl!
Xing Shan was shocked, and immediately jumped up from the ground, and rushed to the source of the sound with lightness kung fu. When he got there, he suddenly found that the wolf girl was surrounded by a group of people with wooden sticks, and kept growling. .

Seeing this situation, Xing Shan rushed up quickly, and showed his arrest token to those people, "Xing Shan, the head arrester of Shuntian Mansion, what are you doing here?!"

Hearing his scolding, those people put down the wooden sticks in their hands, pointed at the wolf girl and complained: "Sir, we are servants of the ancestral family. We saw this woman sneaking around our ancestral family at night and asked. She didn’t say anything about what she wanted to do, so we surrounded her and planned to hand her over to the authorities to find out who she really was.”

"It doesn't have to be so troublesome."

Xing Shan said coldly: "She is from my Shuntian Mansion. We were entrusted by your young master to investigate the recent strange phenomenon in your ancestor's house."

Hearing his explanation, the servants looked at each other a few times before bowing their hands to Xing Shan, "In that case, then we won't bother you to handle the case here."

Xing Shan wanted them to leave, but saw the wolf girl growl, suddenly stepped forward and bit one of them by the arm!

The man was caught off guard, screamed out from being bitten, raised the wooden stick in his hand, and hit the wolf girl.

Seeing this situation, Xing Shan's eyes froze, and he quickly stepped forward and kicked his wooden stick away.

The man was hit twice by the wolf girl and Xing Shan, and soon fell to the ground in pain.

Seeing this, his companions immediately stepped forward and stopped him, "My lord, what are you doing?"

Xing Shan choked when they asked, and quickly reached out to grab the wolf girl to prevent her from continuing to attack these servants.

But even so, the wolf girl still looked unkindly at these people, which instantly made Xing Shan suspicious.

From the time Wolf Girl left Mengyin Mountain until now, although she was not good at communicating with others, she never became hostile towards anyone for no reason.

Misunderstandings caused by her not speaking are not uncommon, but they don't get so stiff every time. Could it be that these people are weird?
Thinking of this, Xing Shan quickly said, "You say you are servants of the ancestor's family, then go to the ancestor's house with me to confront each other, and see if your young master sent you out."

When those words came out, the faces of those people changed suddenly, and they raised the wooden sticks in their hands again, "Does your lord believe us?"

Seeing their movements, Xing Shan already knew that they were weird, so he narrowed his eyes and held the handle of the knife with his right hand, "So what if you don't believe me, do you want to resist?"

Seeing Xing Shan's stern appearance, those people knew that they might not be able to beat him, so they quickly succumbed, "My lord, we are indeed not servants of the ancestor's family, but just gangsters from the neighborhood who wanted to enter the ancestor's house to steal something. Thinking of being discovered by this girl, we didn't mean to lie and deceive people."

Hearing this, Xing Shan sneered, "Do you think I will believe it?"

"If you don't believe it, there is nothing you can do."

Those people puffed up their chests, "We didn't do anything, at most we were arrested and shut up in the yamen for a few days, can we still beheaded?!"

Seeing that they had even thought about the way forward, Xing Shan narrowed his eyes immediately, "It seems that you are really dead pigs who are not afraid of boiling water, no wonder you can lie so calmly when you see me."

While they were talking, people from the Zu family heard the movement and reported it to the head of the family. Zu Yiming quickly rushed over with a large group of people and surrounded these people.

"What happened?"

Zu Yiming looked at those people for a few times, and finally his eyes fell on the wolf girl. He had met the wolf girl once when he was in Shuntian Mansion, but she was hiding at the door and never talked to him. Knowing that this woman is actually Xing Shanxin's newly married wife, it's unbelievable.

Seeing his gaze, Xing Shan subconsciously stood in front of the wolf girl, and explained to him: "These people claim to be servants of your ancestors, and they hang around outside your mansion with wooden sticks at night, and they don't know what they want to do." something."

Hearing this, Zu Yiming's face became serious, and he glared at the group of people viciously, "It's you again!"
